Chapter 1018: Chapter 660: Origin of the Qi Body, the Second Internal Breath!

Meng Chuan nodded, it is indeed quite difficult.

Yu Anle had put effort into it for almost two years before achieving Perfection.

Then he trained for three more days without any increase in proficiency, the Limit Breaking still seemed far off.

As things stand, it seems only by applying eternal evidence to slowly grind it...

Taoist Monarch Wuyang once said, this technique is the pinnacle of Qi refining.

In the Ancient Martial Qi Refining Era, it was the core technique with the opportunity for "Ascension to Immortality".

Taoist Qi glanced at him but couldn’t see the truth and falsehood of Meng Chuan’s physique, so he said:

"Xiaomeng, has your physique perhaps undergone the reverse Innate?"

Xu Qingfeng beside him also showed hopeful expressions.

Usually, he has heard his master mention this term quite a few times.

The reverse Innate seems like a "supreme honor" in the path of Taoism.

Meng Chuan nodded:

"A few days ago, I reverted once using the Longevity Yu Anle.

The Qi stored in the kidney fills the bones, making the body wide and comfortable."

Taoist Qi showed a complex expression, with some envy and a touch of disbelief.

He spoke slowly, seemingly expressing something yet self-reflecting:

"The mortal form is bound by earthly impurities, and breathing disturbs true nature, the consumption of innate Qi is hard to gather and disperse, the path of reversal is thorny at every step."

This Ancient Eight Immortals Qi refining method is recognized within Taoism as extremely challenging, renowned as "widely praised".

This young man, he can actually train it to Perfection...

Taoist Qi vaguely remembered that when he taught Meng Chuan the [Qi Observation Skill], he learned with extraordinary effort.

In the blink of an eye, "the rationale" seemed almost ahead of him.

Such learning ability, coupled with unmatched Tao roots, is truly terrifying...

Xu Qingfeng secretly clicked his tongue, not understanding, but unconsciously felt it was formidable!

He eagerly added tea for Brother Chuan with a smiling face, saying:

"Is this a Qi refining technique? I can surely learn this, right?"

After saying this, Xu Qingfeng looked at Meng Chuan with extreme anticipation.

Before he could speak, Taoist Qi glanced and said:

"This technique your master knows, you want to learn, your master will teach you to try it."

He had some acquaintance with the Eight Immortals lineage, having learned this method before, he barely achieved major success, so it was no trouble for Meng Chuan.

Meng Chuan observed Xu’s rather clumsy Zhongli Eight Sections Brocade, gave some advice, and left.

...

Dense clouds covered the sky, the Qi was damp, tonight it might rain.

On his way back home, Meng Chuan walked and pondered the matter of Qi.

Taoist Qi’s words had also been a significant revelation to him.

"The reverse Innate of the physique is minor; to let Heaven and Earth reverse Innate... this is absolutely not something [Qi Origin Source] can achieve.

Moreover, the effect of the trait is on me, not on Heaven and Earth, it’s impossible to rely solely on an advanced trait to revive the spiritual Qi of Heaven and Earth..."

In this view, it’s good to have expectations, but don’t hold them too high...

Meng Chuan decided to set this matter aside for now, no longer thinking about it.

Returning home.

The damage caused by previous breakthroughs in the house had been repaired by craftsmen, in the Martial Arts Era things were done efficiently.

Meng Chuan internally reviewed the cultivation technique several times, sensed deeply into his body, and began cultivating again.

The daily cultivation of this technique can attain how much Qi blood, determine the cultivation efficiency, and ascertain how much time is needed daily, all needing exploration.

With deep breaths, the yin and yang Qi flow like fish swimming around his body, diving in and out, mysterious and magical.

Meng Chuan’s heavy breathing filled the quiet room, with his robust figure standing like an iron tower.

As the technique operated, the room gradually filled with mixed black and white, turning into dense, unbreakable lead gray.

Like a dark sea under a rainy sky, fog shrouded.

The lead-gray sea surged and oscillated, fog-laden mountains stretched and rose, elevating momentarily before slowly dissipating towards the surroundings, black and white energy flowing like collapsing sky, falling straight down.

It was unclear how much time had passed, as this process repeated in the room.

The dragon demon had already delved into the cloud and fog for fun, its agile four claws leaping high out of the fog, then crashing headfirst back into the fog before appearing elsewhere as it melted, bouncing excitedly.

The dragon demon enjoyed this kind of Qi encasement.

Breath—

With a slight thought, Meng Chuan’s nostrils widened like an ox’s nose.

The cloud lake was swallowed into his belly in just a few breaths, leaving no surplus.

The dragon demon’s recently gathered body stood upright, blankly looking around.

The next second, was absorbed into his body.

Meng Chuan slowly sat cross-legged, feeling his body.

Opened his eyes, expressionless and tranquil.

[Yin-Yang Soul Purging Heart Sutra: Entry (1%)→(2%)]

"In the star veins, fourteen points of Qi blood added, considering the gain at entry, roughly daily cultivation can acquire around fifteen points of Qi and Blood Value..."

Although the Soul Purging Heart Sutra’s cultivation efficiency is far less compared to Tao Heart Demon Planting.

But that is with the powerful enhancement of the Red Refining Banner, not to be generalized.

The latter is mostly considered the cosmos’ supreme "divine method", whereas Soul Purging Heart Sutra is merely the top True Skill.

With this harvest, Meng Chuan is already satisfied.

He had previously done some homework on this.

Typically, the Qi blood cultivation of high-level True Skills and pinnacle True Skills daily rarely breaks two digits, Soul Purging Heart Sutra is already significantly better.

Of course, this is partly because he has already achieved [Recognize Heaven and Earth].

Recognizing Heaven and Earth allows observing the free flow of Qi energy, moving closer to the intangible, elusive energy of Heaven and Earth.

For the gathering of cosmic vitality, refining into abundant Qi blood, far exceeds the effects of others’ painstaking practice.

Meng Chuan silently pondered:

"Daily cultivation of this technique requires nearly five hours, making my cultivation time somewhat tight...

But just from Qi blood acquisition, it’s much stronger than practice boxing, and with Qi, it’s certainly positioned for daily principal cultivation, thus showing the need to adjust the cultivation sequence..."
